Why did the capture of Constantinople by the Ottomans mark the end of the byzantine empire when Constantinople was captured by Venice before during the Fourth Crusade?

The Byzantine Empire did not recover from the fall of Constantinople to the Turks because the Turks were a strong local power which captured all of the remaining byzantine territory. Whereas the 4th Crusaders were few in number after they divided up the empire and they only captured part of the Byzantine Empire, the remainder of the Empire split into independent Byzantine powers, one of which the Empire of Nicaea eventually recaptured Constantinople and restored the Byzantine Empire.

What laws did Justinian make?

Well considering that he was the Byzantine emperor (the eastern Roman Empire was called the Byzantine Empire and did not fall when the western one did), I'd say many. He actually was more like Roman emperors then his Byzantine predecessors and attempted to restore the old borders of the empire.


How were the Byzantine and roman cultures connected?

The Roman Empire was divided into two parts in 395. The Westrern and the Eastern Roman Empire. The power of the emperors was weakened by the barbarians and the continuous quarrelling with one another. The Western part fell in 476 to the barbarians. Power shifted to the eastern part called Byzantine (Byzantine Empire=Eastern Roman empire). The name came from Byzantion, an ancient Greek seaport, on the site of which the Roman emperor Constantine founded a city called Constantinople. This city was created in 324 and became the capital of the empire which existed until its defeat by the Turks in 1453. There was central government in the Byzantine Empire: one emperor, one God, one religion. Culture, entertainment were rather similar to those of in Rome (theatres, baths, hippodromes, chariot races, taverns, etc). Latin was gradually replaced by Greek language, and the the Greek Orthodox Church was formed (it is Christian but not Roman, not Catholic). .


What was the art period before Byzantine Art?

Well seeing as Byzantine Art really only applies to a style of art in the Byzantine Empire and not the world, one can't really give a definite name to its predecessor. However, Byzantine Art was influenced by art from the Roman Empire (Roman Art).
